The classic 8-bit opening sequences of the Mega Man games for the Nintendo Entertainment System are some of the most memorable in video games, especially among fans.

New Mega Man merchandise is on its way to Blue Bomber fans across North America, and the Capcom*Unity offers a sneak peek. From Chris Kramer: Dunno about you, but as a Mega Fan, I’m constantly jealous of all the killer Blue Bomber goods produced in Japan that are near-impossible to find in North America. That’s […]

It’s a sad day for the Mega Man 9 Remix Project. But don’t worry! The album hasn’t been canceled or anything. It appears über-talented guitarist, Sixto Sounds, had a hard drive crash resulting in the loss of a lot of irreplaceable work files. Anybody familiar with Sixto’s work knows how much of a tragedy this […]

We’ve been keeping tabs on Capcom’s Top 30 Mega Man Tribute countdown, but thought this one was amusing enough on its own to share separately.

Tomorrow marks a day of special significance… That’s right, tomorrow marks the first anniversary of the release of Mega Man 9 on WiiWare, which was followed shortly thereafter by releases on Xbox LIVE Arcade and the PlayStation Network, respectively. Now normally, we admit that we would probably not bother observing such a date; take into […]

As many of you are no doubt already aware, it seems that one of Konami’s worst-kept secrets of late is their plan to bring a new Castlevania title to WiiWare. The ESRB posted the info before Konami was able to make an announcement (and, as of this writing, they have still yet to say anything), […]

Recently, Nintendo has updated the Wii’s “Nintendo Channel” with a new layout and new features. One such feature is the ability to make recommendations for DS titles. However, there are two small problems here, where a site such as ours is concerned. The first is that so far, we have not been able to find […]

Back in July, we posted about a Mega Man 9 Remix Project started by the Overclocked ReMix Community. Finally, more news has been released on the album! First off, the most recent track submission date of September 1st (aka today) was “a success”. Secondly, a new teaser is available for download to get all the […]

It’s no small secret that music is considered a very significant part of the Mega Man games. After all, the Blue Bomber himself and his sister were originally named for Rock and Roll, only to be later joined by Blues, Beat, Tango, and others. And then with the X series, the whole thing kind of […]
